Excerpt
She was just the nicest old lady. We were always glad to see her coming down the walk. “ So original,” we said, “so good-natured,” ‘so large hearted,” and “so quaint.” In fact, we had a long list of sentences beginning with “so” to' describe Mrs. Solomon Smith. In winter she always had her knitting. She had it this afternoon. And Laura took her crochet, and Mary her braiding, while I gave the block of coal in the grate a vigorous poke, and sent the red glow flaming up before I settled myself to enjoy her.
